Two years after I wrote the article about Sunset Foods coming to town, the residents of Long Grove, Il still only see dirt and no signs of the Sunset Foods strip mall. For many months there were many trucks getting ready for the construction of the Sunset Foods, and then all of a sudden the consturction trucks ceased coming.
Well last week, the Chicago Tribune reported the following....
Hoffman's Lakewood Real Estate Solutions is working with the property's owner, Pinnacle Capital Group, on the $30 million, 141,000-square-foot project. Sunset is scheduled to open in about a year at the southeast corner of Illinois Highway 83 and Aptakisic Road.
Thank you LakeWood Real Estate- maybe now, Long Grove will get the Sunset they finally deserve!
In November of 2007, I wrote the following post....
Many of the residents of Buffalo Grove and Long Grove have heard rumors for the past few years that Sunset Foods may be adding their 5th grocery store at the South East corner of Aptakisic Road and Route 83 in Long Grove. Will this ever be a truism, and not just a rumor? At a recent Village Board meeting, Mike Firsel, co- founder of Mid- America Development Partners pitched the idea to the Village Board and the proposal will now be discussed by Long Grove's Plan Commission.
Village President Maria Rodriguez said the town has been trying to bring in Sunset Foods for more than a year now. "There was a definite cry from residents for practical stores," she said. "It's a family-owned business; it's a high-end grocery store. We think it's going to be an absolutely perfect fit."
Presently Sunset Foods has locations in Highland Park, Lake Forest, Libertville and Northbrook and many Buffalo Grove and Long Grove residents make a 20 minute trip to these other towns in order to do their weekly grocery shopping trip. 
Sunset's customers stay loyal to this 70- year family-owned company because of the store's excellent customer service and reputation. The company's employees load the customers' groceries, provide complimentary cooking and nutrition classes and offer to special order products that are not on the shelf. Sunset is also a popular stop for busy moms and professionals like myself since they always have delicious pre- cooked meals, exotic salads and other tasty dishes.
